Hicks: Rick Ross shot at, escapes injury

Someone opened fire on rap star Rick Ross on Monday morning while he was driving with his girlfriend in Ft. Lauderdale.

Neither Ross or his girlfriend, Shateria L. Moragne-el, were injured. Ross crashed his car into a building while escaping the gunfire, according to TMZ. The suspect fled before police arrived.

According to local news reports, "dozens" of shots were fired at the Rolls-Royce vehicle around 5 a.m., none of which hit the car but instead struck several nearby buildings. Police said another vehicle pulled up next to Ross and someone opened fire.
